Aotea stone, sometimes known as blue stone, is comprised of an extremely rare mixture of Kyanite (blue), Fuchsite (Green) and Quartz (white), along with a small amount of other associate minerals. Aotea stone generally only originates from a small valley in South Westland, New Zealand. It is an extremely prized and rare stone, a much rarer stone than New Zealand greenstone and forms part of the pounamu legends. Spiritually it is a very feminine stone, as it helps heal the goddess aspect within the individual.

New Zealand Aotea Stone Whale Tail Styled Pendant Necklace 50 mm
Whales are the largest animal living in the seas and ones of the ocean’s most beloved creatures. The whale’s tail holds powerful symbolism, especially in the Maori culture, due to the power that the tail provides to the whale. The whale tail symbolizes strength and affinity to nature, especially the ocean, the unity between humans and the sea. Today it represents protection on all forms of transport. Those that travel the seas also see it as a sign of good luck.
